Izigaba ezine zabantu.

Bangu izigaba ezine zabantu ngokwenani, izinga kanye nenhloso yabo ngicabanga: abasebenzi, abahwebi, abacabangi, Futhi abazi. Amakilasi awabonakali. Isilinganiso i abantu zihlukene kangaka intuthuko yabo ifinyelelwa ngicabanga.

Ubulili, iminyaka, ukugqoka, umsebenzi, isiteshi, izimpahla zivame ukusetshenziswa njengezimpawu zokufaka isintu ngezigaba. Lawa mamaki angaphandle kuphela. Abafinyeleli ezingxenyeni ze abenzi ezihlala emizimbeni ehlukaniswe kanje. Ngisho imizwa, imizwelo, ukuthambekela kanye izifiso bayehluleka ukunikeza ukuhlukaniswa okuphelele kanye nesizathu. Amamaki akhona ikusasa lomzimba, Ncika ku ngicabanga. Kuphela ngokusho kwe- ngicabanga abantu besilisa bangakwazi yini ukuhlukaniswa ngezigaba eziyimbangela yezimpawu zomzimba.

Lokhu kuhlukaniswa akuhlangene nezinhlelo zezigaba ezaziwa emlandweni, ezivame ukuxhunyaniswa noma ezisekelwe ohlelweni lwezenkolo. Ukuhlelwa kwamadoda ngokwawo ngicabanga izimele kunoma yikuphi inkolo. Izigaba ezine zikhona futhi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ziyaziwa noma cha, noma nini lapho kukhona a esintwini futhi noma yini ifomu kahulumeni. Kuwo wonke amadoda amane izinhlobo ayamelelwa, ngoba wonke umuntu unomzimba futhi uhlobene nezingxenye ezintathu I-Triune Self. Kodwa uhlobo olulodwa luhamba phambili, futhi lubonisa isigaba akuso, kungakhathalekile ubulili, isikhundla, izimpahla, umsebenzi noma amanye amamaki angaphandle. Kwezinye iminyaka lokhu division, okuyinto njalo ephikelela yakhe emkhathini, ithola futhi ku ingaphandle okwenyama ukuphila, futhi imakwe ngokucijile. Lokhu kunjalo ngezikhathi ezinhle kakhulu zabantu. Khona-ke wonke umuntu uyazazi ukuthi unguye, futhi waziwa ngabanye ukuthi, ekilasini lakhe. Uyayazi njengoba nengane yazi ukuthi yingane hhayi indoda. Akukho ukudelelwa noma umona kwanoma yikuphi ukuhlukaniswa kwezigaba. Nokho, kwezinye izikhathi, ukuhluka kwalezi zigaba akuvezwa ngokuqinile, kodwa kuhlale kunezinkomba ezijwayelekile eziphakamisa ukuhlukaniswa okuphindwe kane okuyisisekelo.

Kunezinto eziningi wonke amadoda afana ngazo namuhla. Bonke banayo izifiso ngoba ukudla, isiphuzo, ukugqoka, ukuzijabulisa, ukunethezeka. Cishe bonke banokuhle okuthile nature kanye nozwelo, ikakhulukazi lapho amashwa abanye ekhanga ngendlela ephawulekayo. Bonke bayadabuka futhi bayahlupheka. Bonke banezinye ubuhle, eminye imikhuba emibi, yonke ingaphansi kwayo izifo. Ezindaweni ezahlukene ezinkulu izinombolo bambelela ezinkolelweni ezifanayo nezikahulumeni, inkolo nokuhleleka komphakathi. Lezi zinto amadoda afana ngazo zisobala kangangokuthi zivame ukufihla ukuhlukana kwezigaba. Bese kuba nethonya elilinganayo lemali enkathini yezentengiselwano neyokuthanda izinto ezibonakalayo. Nokho, amakilasi amane akhona namuhla ngokuqinisekile njengakuqala.

Esigabeni sokuqala kukhona abantu abacabanga kancane, abakabani ngicabanga incane, ayijulile futhi ivilapha futhi inhloso yayo kuwukufuna amalungelo kuwo wonke umuntu futhi singacabangeli ezabo imisebenzi kunoma ubani. Yabo ukuphila kuyinkonzo emizimbeni yabo. Bafuna izinto zemizimba yabo. Abacabangi ngabanye ngaphandle kokuthi abanye bathinta imizimba yabo. Banokuncane noma abanakho inkumbulo of okuhlangenwe nakho futhi amaqiniso kude nemanje futhi ungakhumbuli lutho emlandweni ngaphandle kwalokho okuwela phakathi nezinhloso zabo. Abafuni ulwazi. Abafuni ukuzithiba, abanamthetho, abanangqondo, abanalwazi, abakhohlakali, abaguquki, abakhathali futhi bayazitika. Bathatha abakutholayo, hhayi ngoba bengeke bathathe izinto ezingcono, kodwa ngoba bengenasithakazelo ngokwanele futhi bavilapha kakhulu ngokwengqondo ukucabanga izindlela zokuzithola. Ziqhutshwa uchungechunge lwezehlakalo futhi ziyizisebenzi zemvelo. Bayizinceku nge nature. Abanye babo banenhlanhla nezikhundla eziphezulu ohlelweni lomphakathi, abanye umsebenzi kwezobuciko nasemsebenzini, kodwa iningi liyizisebenzi ezinomzimba, abasebenzi bezandla noma omabhalane. Muva nje izinto eziqanjiwe zinezimboni ezithuthukile futhi zanda ezentengiselwano. Lokhu sekudale ukuthi abasebenzi bagcwale emadolobheni, abasebenzi bagxile kakhulu futhi abantu bathembele kakhulu emisebenzini yabanye. Lezi zinguquko kancane kancane ziye zasiza ekwenzeni abasebenzi bavelele yidlanzana elihlelekile nezinyunyana zabasebenzi. Ngaleyo ndlela izinhloko zabantu abaningi kulesi sigaba sokuqala ziye zagcwala imibono engafanele yokubaluleka kwazo futhi imibono enjalo esontekile ayizange ilungiswe ukuvota kwendawo yonke. amalungelo ezikhona kwamanye amazwe.

Nokho, inkolelo yabo ayibasusi abantu abakulesi sigaba, kuso. Futhi izinxushunxushu, isiteleka nokuvukela umbuso ngeke kukwenze lokho. Abantu abakulesi sigaba futhi abasala kuso bakhona ngoba balapho, ngenxa yabo ikusasa ngengqondo ibagcina lapho futhi ngoba bebengeke babe kunoma yiziphi ezinye izigaba. Ngaphandle kwe umcabangi futhi umhwebi, owakha futhi wabela lokho isisebenzi esiqashelwe ukukhiqiza, ngeke kube khona ukukhiqizwa kwesigaba sokuqala. Ngisho nabaholi besigaba sokuqala abajwayele ukungena kulo. Imvamisa kuba ngabahwebi abahweba ngabantu besigaba sokuqala njengoba abanye abahwebi behweba ngamalahle noma izinkomo. Amandla alawa ma-demagogue asetshenziswa ngobuqili nangokuzwa inani, izinga, inhloso kanye nobubanzi be ngicabanga kwenziwa yisigaba sokuqala.

Abanye abenzi bazalwa kulesi sigaba sokuqala nakuba bengebona abaso; ngemuva kokuqeqeshwa kanzima abakudingayo umsebenzi bona ngokwabo baphume kuyo, njengomuntu owesula injini oba inhloko yesitimela, umabhalane oba umgcini webhange, noma i-millhand eba usosayensi.

Ekilasini lesibili kukhona abenzi abacabanga ngaphezu kwezisebenzi, ezithi ngicabanga ibanzi, ithatha izifundo eziningi, iyazivumela izimo, iyashesha futhi inembe nakuba ingaphandle. Umgomo wabo ngokuvamile uwukunikela ngokuncane njengoba kufanele futhi bathole okuningi ngangokunokwenzeka, hhayi ukwenza okwabo imisebenzi kwabanye ngaphezu kokuba bephoqelekile ukuba benze. Bacabanga ngabanye ngokufaneleka nangokuxhashazwa. Yabo izifiso ziyingxenye esebenza kakhulu yazo; bazama ukulawula imizimba yabo kanye neyabo ngicabanga. Inhloso yeningi labo imicabango kuwukuthola okuthile okuyokwanelisa isifiso senzuzo, kunokujabulela ngomzimba. Bahlala phakathi kwabo izifiso futhi wenze imizimba yabo izikhonze. Ngokuvamile bazohamba ngaphandle ukudla futhi baqhube imizimba yabo ngokungakhathali ukuze bathole into abayifisayo, benze isivumelwano sebhizinisi, bahwebe, futhi ngokuvamile baphishekele ukuhweba kwabo. Bazophila ngokungenangqondo ukuze baqongelele imali. One wesigaba sokuqala, umenzi womzimba, ngeke umsebenzi umzimba onzima ukwanelisa isifiso semali yedwa. Angase umsebenzi kunzima ukuthola imali, kodwa inhloso yakhe ukusebenzisa lokho akuzuzile, emzimbeni wakhe. Njengoba isifiso sisebenza umzimba kulesi sigaba sesibili, siyasebenza futhi umqondo womzimba futhi phoqa ngicabanga. Inhloso yabo-ke ukuthola izindlela zokwanelisa isifiso. Lapho isifiso sokuzuza sisebenza kakhulu, sizoba sikhulu inani ngicabanga isiphi isifiso esingayala ngenkonzo yayo futhi okungcono kuyoba yayo izinga ngokujulile kanye nokuqonda.

Bafuna ukuhleleka okujwayelekile ezindabeni, njengoba lokhu kuvikela izithakazelo zabo. Ababona abangenamthetho njengalabo besigaba sokuqala kodwa bafuna ukusebenzisa lowo myalelo ovamile ukuze baqhubekisele phambili izithakazelo zabo siqu, futhi abamelene nokuzitholela izintuba noma isivikelo esikhethekile ngokulahlekelwa yilabo ababoshwe ujenene. imithetho. Kubo lokho abanakho isifiso is kwesokudla; yini ephikisana nabo isifiso is okungalungile. Banengqondo emabhizinisini abo futhi babhekisisa ubuthakathaka bomuntu nature. Ngokuvamile baziswa mayelana amaqiniso kanye nezimo ezithinta ibhizinisi labo elithile. Abakholeki kodwa bayakungabaza futhi bayasola ukuthi yini ethinta impahla namaphrojekthi abo. Bazizwa beqinisekile umthwalo wemfanelo uma benempahla, kodwa zama ukuyibalekela uma bekwazi. Bazijabulisa zabo izifiso ukuze bajabulele ngomzimba kuphela lapho bekwazi ukukukhokhela nalapho kungekho sifiso esibusayo esinikeza izithiyo. Ukubusa kwabo kuyinzuzo, inzuzo, izimpahla. Bahweba ngazo zonke izinto lezi. Bazivumelanisa nezimo kuze kube yilapho bekwazi ukwenza izimo ezivumelana nabo. Banqoba indawo abakuyo esikhundleni sokwaneliseka noma ukubuswa yiyo. Ngokwemvelo bathola amandla phezu kwesigaba sokuqala.

Abantu abakulesi sigaba bangabahwebi. Ukuthenga nokuthengisa nje akulethi muntu kuleli klasi, ngoba cishe wonke umuntu unokuthenga nokudayisa okuthile azokwenza. Abalimi nabalimi, nakuba bethenga izinto ezithile futhi bathengise imikhiqizo yabo, ngokuvamile ababona okwabahwebi. Futhi abantu abathengisa izinsiza zabo ezingenamakhono, ezinamakhono, ezobuciko noma zobungcweti, noma ngabe bona umsebenzi ngamaholo noma ngokuzimela. Kodwa labo abazibandakanya ezenzweni zezentengiselwano kanye nezabo isifiso kungokwenzuzo kunokuthola ukuphila nje, noma ukushisekela izwe, udumo noma udumo, bonke kusukela kubathengisi kuya kumakhosana abathengisi bangalesi sigaba. Kusukela kumnini-sitolo osesigodini kanye nomuntu othengisa emigwaqweni yasemaphandleni kuya kubathengisi bezimpahla eziphelele, kusukela kuma-pawnbroker amancane kuya kumabhange abolekisa ngemali kazwelonke, bonke basezingeni elifanayo. Ubumpofu babo noma ingcebo, ukwehluleka noma impumelelo, akuthinti ukuhlukaniswa. Izinguquko eziye zafika ekuhleleni kwezenhlalakahle ezikhathini zanamuhla azizange zisize isigaba sokuqala, izisebenzi zomzimba, ukuba zivelele, kodwa zenze isigaba sesibili, abahwebi, ababusi bomhlaba. Ngokuthuthuka kokukhiqiza nokuhweba kufike inqwaba yabathengisi bezindlu, ababolekisi, abathuthukisi, ama-ejenti, amakhomishana, izisebenzi, kanye nabalingani bezinhlobonhlobo eziningi. Acacile izinhlobo wesigaba sesibili. Lapha kungezababusi emibusweni yesimanje yentando yeningi, okungukuthi, izinhloko zalabo abahola osomabhizinisi abakhulu, abamabhange, osopolitiki bamaqembu, abameli nabaholi babasebenzi. Bonke abantu ekilasini lesibili bazama ukugoba yonke into ukuze benze umsebenzi wabo isifiso ngenzuzo futhi izimpahla. Inhloso yabo ngaso sonke isikhathi ukuthola okungcono kakhulu ekuthengiseni.

Esigabeni sesithathu kukhona abantu ababizwa lapha abacabangi. Bacabanga kakhulu; yabo ngicabanga ibanzi, ijulile futhi iyasebenza, uma iqhathaniswa neyabasebenzi nabahwebi. Inhloso yabo enkulu ukufeza izifiso kanye izifiso ngaphandle kokukhetha izinto ezibonakalayo. Yabo isifiso kungokwabo ngicabanga ukuba ngaphezulu nokulawula kwabo izifiso. Kulokhu bahluke kubahwebi, isifiso sabo siwukuthi labo izifiso izolawula i ngicabanga. Izici ezivelele ze- abacabangi kuwukuhlonipha udumo, ubuqhawe, izimiso, udumo kanye nokuzuza emisebenzini, ezobuciko nesayensi. Bacabanga ukuthi bangazenza kanjani ngcono izimo zabanye. Benza imizimba yabo isebenze izinhloso zabo ngicabanga. Ngokuvamile bakhokhisa intela ukukhuthazela kwemizimba yabo, inselelo yokuswela kanye isifo futhi bathole izingozi ekuphishekeleni kwabo izifiso. Bayafisa izifiso. Zabo izifiso babuse abanye babo izifiso, futhi ngicabanga bahola labo izifiso ukukhonza labo izifiso.

Kulesi sigaba kukhona abantu abangabaholi ngicabanga, abantu abanayo izifiso, cabanga futhi ulwele ukubalandela. Bahola futhi balondoloze udumo, yokufunda, isiko, imikhuba kanye nolimi. Atholakala ezinhlwini zesayensi, phakathi kwamaciko, izazi zefilosofi, abashumayeli nakwezokwelapha, ukufundisa, ezomthetho, ezempi kanye neminye imisebenzi. Batholakala emindenini ehlukile eyazisa udumo lwabo, isiko, igama elihle nomsebenzi womphakathi. Baklama futhi bathole izindlela abahwebi abazuza ngazo futhi izisebenzi zithola umsebenzi embonini nakwezohwebo. Babeka indinganiso yokuziphatha ye kwesokudla futhi okungalungile kubasebenzi nabahwebi. Phakathi kwazo kuqalwa ukunyakaza kokuthuthukiswa kwabantu kanye nezimo lapho abantu abampofu noma abahluphekayo bephila ngaphansi kwaso. Bangumgogodla wezizwe. Esimeni esibucayi ezweni ukuphila bahola indlela. Abaningi babo banezindlela. Kodwa njengoba ukuphishekela kwabo izifiso akukhona ukukhonza imali Unkulunkulu, akaziniki ngokuzithandela imali, umhlaba kanye izimpahla njengomvuzo wabo. Uma bengenakho ukuhluka okubonakalayo kwalolu hlobo, umhlaba uhlonipha kancane isigaba sesithathu. Yabo isimo sengqondo futhi ukuthanda ngenxa yabo izifiso ngokuvamile kuyinselele yokudalelwa, okubavumela ukuba bavivinywe kanzima. Ngisho nasezimeni ezinjalo zabo ngicabanga ibanika izinzuzo ezingaphezulu kakhulu kwanoma yini abahwebi nezisebenzi abaphuma kuyo ukuphila.

Ikilasi lesine libizwa lapha abazi. Zabo ngicabanga ukhathazekile ukuzazi, okungukuthi, ngalokho okukhishwe ku-distilled yokufunda okuyiyona yona eyavela kuyo Okuhlangenwe nakho. Lolu lwazi lusengqondweni noetic umkhathi womuntu, kanti ulwazi lomuzwa wesikhathi sokuphila konke lukanye ifomu lokuphefumula. Zabo ngicabanga iphenduka ukuzazi, nakuba bengase bangakwazi ukuyifinyelela. Yabo isifiso ukuthola imibono. Bayazi ngemibono efana ubulungiswa, ukuthanda kanye neqiniso, kodwa lolo lwazi alutholakali kubo, ngakho bacabanga ngemibono, ngokucacile, ngokunengqondo, ngokungagunci. Bacabanga ngabo uyazi emizimbeni yabo nasemizimbeni yabo maqondana koBunkulunkulu babo ngale kwemizimba yabo kanye nature, futhi futhi onkulunkulu of nature. Bacabanga ngabanye, hhayi ngenjongo yokuxhashazwa noma ngenxa isidingo, kodwa bazibeka ezindaweni zabanye abantu. I ngicabanga yabathengisi ukhonza yabo izifiso, lo ngicabanga we abacabangi ifinyelela ku izifiso, Kodwa i ngicabanga we abazi ifuna ukuhlangana nemibono kanye nokuhlala nayo ezintweni ezingacacile noma ukuzisebenzisa ezindabeni zokuphila. I abazi bathembele kubo ngokwabo ukuze bathole lolu lwazi, njengoba ukuphila kubabonisa ukuthi ngeke baluthole kunoma yimuphi omunye umthombo. Izikhuthazo zivela ngaphakathi. Lapho becabanga, bangaphonsa ukukhanya ngezinkinga zempilo. Abawona ama-mystics, futhi abalutholi ulwazi ezimeni ezijabulisayo. Ezinye zazo azikho lokho okushiwo yizwe abacabangi; kodwa banokuqonda ezintweni. Azikho kunoma isiphi isendlalelo sohlelo lomphakathi. Aziningi ngokwanele ukwenza ungqimba. Uma betholakala bangase babe kunoma yiluphi ubizo noma isikhundla. Ababeki amanani ajwayelekile endaweni, ukugunyazwa noma izimpahla,ngoba zabo ngicabanga ayibhekani kakhulu nazo, ngaphandle kokuhlanganisa nokucabangela ngazo. Kodwa ngezinye izikhathi ezinye zazo zinikeza ukukhanyiselwa, ngokuvamile ku abacabangi abasethubeni lokuyisebenzisela umhlaba. Bambalwa phakathi inombolo futhi ze izinhlobo njengoPenn, u-Alexander Hamilton noBenjamin Franklin.

Lezi zigaba ezine zikhona njalo kungakhathaliseki ukuthi phakathi kwamaqaba noma impucuko ephakeme futhi kungakhathalekile ukuthi uyini ngaphandle ifomu kahulumeni. I abenzi emizimbeni esemhlabeni yehla yenyuka ngaphakathi kwalezi zigaba ezine ezingabonakali lapho inani, izinga kanye nenhloso yabo ngicabanga ezibeka futhi ezikhombisa ukukhula kwazo njenge abantu.

Ushintsho kunhloso lungabeka a umcabangi esigabeni sabasebenzi noma sabahwebi kanye a owaziyo angaba ngumhwebi. Ukwehla okunjalo njengomthetho kungokwesikhashana. Okuphezulu kungase kube okuphansi ngokuzumayo, kodwa okuphansi ngeke kube phezulu ngaphandle kokuqhubeka kancane. Lapho isisebenzi noma umhwebi ngokuzumayo ecabanga futhi eziphusha ekilasini lakhe futhi abe umcabangi or owaziyo, ubonisa ngalokho ukuthi wayeqale wehla kulezi zigaba eziphakeme.

Ngokuvumelana nezimo ezishintshayo ze umoya wengqondo of it umuntu a umenzi uyehla wenyuka kula makilasi amane. Nini abantu ukushintsha inhloso yabo ngicabanga, ushintsho luhambisana nenani, izinga kanye nobubanzi be ngicabanga futhi kanjalo sishintsha isimo somqondo wabo emkhathini. Lokho kuthinta izimo zabanye babo abathathu emkhathini. Uma ezine emkhathini zingabonakala, izici ezishintshile abethula ngazo isikhathi kuya isikhathi, zizovela ziphawulwe njengalezo zosuku olungase lube buthuntu, lucwebezele futhi lube nesiphepho.

Namuhla amakilasi amane awakwazi ukubonakala kalula. Noma kunjalo bakhona. Okukhulu kunawo wonke inombolo wabantu kuze kube manje usesigabeni sokuqala; encane kakhulu inombolo yenza abahwebi; i abacabangi zikhona inombolo ngaphansi kwengxenye yesine yesigaba sesibili; kanye ne abazi bayingcosana ngempela.

Ngokuvamile isigaba umuntu ayingxenye yaso singabonakala ngendlela evamile, kodwa ngokuvamile amamaki ohlaka lwenhlalakahle akulo aluhambisani nohlobo olubusa ngaphakathi. Abaningi abasesigabeni sabameli ababona abe abacabangi, kodwa bangabathengisi noma izisebenzi. Odokotela abaningi bangabahwebi kuphela, ngaphandle kokubheka umsebenzi wabo kanye nedumela labo. Abaningi abasebenza njengamadoda ka uNkulunkulu bangabahwebi ngokufanayo noma ngisho nomzimba-abenzi. Iningi lezikhulu zezwe, abashayamthetho, osopolitiki, abagqugquzeli kanye nama-wirepullers abenza izindaba zomphakathi nje noma ikakhulukazi ngenxa yamaphakethe abo. Bahlala ezindaweni okufanele zigcwaliswe abacabangi, kodwa bangabathengisi. Kuzo zonke izimo ezinjalo abantu basesigabeni sabahwebi, kodwa banezikhundla emphakathini ohlelekile abangasoze baphathwa yibo ngenkathi ngicabanga wabagcina esigabeni sabahwebi.

Ngokuvamile umzimba-abenzi, labo besigaba sokuqala, babalwa ezindaweni lapho kuzo abacabangi kufanele. Bangamakhonzi futhi isikhathi amaseva kuma-monarchies; futhi emazweni abusa ngentando yeningi bagcwalisa amahhovisi amaningi omphakathi, lapho belalela khona abaphathi abababeka lapho futhi abangabahwebi ngokwabo. Kusukela kubaniki-mthetho abachema namajaji alula ukuya ezikhulwini ezingenangqondo nabagcini bejele abanonya, amazwi nezenzo zabo zibonisa isigaba abayingxenye yaso ngempela. Bacabanga okuncane futhi lokho okuncane kuncane, akujulile futhi kuvilapha futhi bahlose ukuzitika nokukhonza umzimba. Kwesinye isikhathi ezinye zalezi zibalo zesigaba sokuqala ezikhundleni okufanele zigcwaliswe abahwebi abahamba phambili. Kunjalo ikakhulukazi lapho kwenziwa izinkontileka zomphakathi kanye nokusetshenziswa kwemali yomphakathi

The ikusasa ngengqondo emakilasini amane kunqunywe yiwo ngicabanga, kuyo yonke inkathi nakuyo yonke impucuko. Lezi zinkathi nempucuko zibuyela emuva kude, kude kakhulu nangaphezu kwanoma yini inganekwane, isiko nomlando oyishoyo. Emakhasini alandelayo kuzonikezwa ukulandisa okufushane ngalokho okuye kwabizwa ngokuthi “Isiqalo.”
